The Sultan allaws other religions to carry on with their beliefs. The Sultan has built Churches, Temples and other buildings for worship.

type of muslim in oman
The mostly school is the Ibadi group then the Sunni and then small group of shia. The royal family is ibadi and most of the dakhiliyah region and sharqiyah region is ibadi.Sunni is mostly in the batinah-but south batinah most is of ibadhi-region and dhahirah and salalah region.Shia is very small group who used to live mostly in the matrah area but now many in muscat.The shia peoples originoly indian who given the omani passport and they like to do the business for work and they maybe 1 or 2 per sent of omani national populaition.Muslim in oman are very kind people and we invite people anywon to our house this is omani way.We show them all arab ways and food.
